Usually a lurker.
Maybe I should’ve just shut up and thought for a bit longer before writing that comment…
If you want to talk to me elsewhere, you know how to reach me.
Many (most?) residential internet service providers do not allow self hosting websites on their network and they’d be dynamic IP anyway though you could work around that somewhat with dynamic DNS since you’re going to need to purchase a domain name and point it to somewhere anyway.
That’s what I already do.
cloudflare-ddns, own domain and done. Except for reliability at night where the ISP reboots my DSL connection at 4am.

What we usually do is using an SMTP relay.
Plus points on having a spam protection service included and in front of the mail server.
As an employee of an MSP it’s sometimes really annoying how some smaller one-man-army + employee MSPs do “crafty” setups on site and meaningless firewall rules to work against.
and email can be hosted sooo cheap these times. My ionos contract just to have my own domain costs me maybe 10€ per month.
- 2 servers for reundancy, preferably 3rd one laying around for a quick swap
Overkill for a small startup. We sell to medical practices and they get (at most) a small tower server from HPE (ML30). Backup servers can either be a small 2 bay NAS or a microserver depending on the needs
Pretty decent UPS setup, again multiple units for reundancy
If they can afford that. Most are already good by just using a decent online UPS.
Routers, network hardware, internet uplinks and everything at least duplicated and configured correctly to keep things running
Not a multi million company.
Routers: BS.
Network: Maybe 2x 16 port switches but too much overhead. 1x 48 Port if you really need that.
Internet uplinks: If you have a satellite office and need the S2S-VPN to be constantly up.
Btw: You didnt mention a duplicated phone line ;P
- A separate backup solution, on at least two different physical locations, so a few more servers and their network, power and other stuff taken care of
Again overkill.
Backup on the server with something to a 2-Bay NAS and a secondary job with rotating external USB disks to take or somewhere external with you.
Monitoring, alerting system in case of failures, someone being on-call for 24/7
Monitoring: Yep
Alerting: Done by monitoring in the best circumstance
On-call 24/7: As this is a small company: LOL
Not fear but you need to have the respect it deserves.
Had a similar issue migrating to my new setup after I started scanning the new archive.
Try increasing your swap disk.
Mine was set at 1GB but increased it later to 8GB. No more freezes of the host.
Also makes it much simpler to set up backups and migrate the compute-focused pc to a new OS without needing to look much after the files
Connected my NAS 10GbE directly to my proxmox 2.5GbE interface.
Set up the IP as static with jumbo frames and voilá direct NFS storage.
Took me 4 weeks to get it all together but man was it satisfying to see it work.
For inspiration:
Old setup:
New setup:
While not painless I think I learned a substantial amount on how Posix permissions work and confirms why native ACLs while more complicated are superior.
Also learned a bit about Samba, fstab and NFS c:
For other banks.
Sparkassen customers dont need to pay at other sparkassen belonging to the same group (I think it depends on how the different regions organized themselves)
They can also do coorperations between other banks like for ing-diba and other institutes.
Dev discontinued the app due to google being difficult to maintain.
Maybe ;)
Any work or study done during an all-nighter is a waste.
Depends. I did some of my best work at this time (private project. not for my actual workplace).
Why would you want to wear a blazer for school outside of important days?
Certainly understandable. Wouldnt risk it on my current main device either. Only on a future new or old backup phone
Suddenly pineapples.
Wondering what to do because decision paralysis.
Assuming I was in the mood, have all the energy and mental focus I want I’d think about how to fix my home setup.
Bonus points if I would understand everything perfectly and didnt have a need to learn all intricacies beforehand
my pleasure if I can help :)
